Pardon the sweat. Or don't!

I'm probably right on the cusp of a mid-life crisis, but you know, I have zero problems working a bullshit do nothing, soulless corporate job. Maybe the world has changed, but I can't think of a better job for someone whose ambitions don't involve their career.

I would say rot in piss but some of my favorite queers are into piss. It's too good for him.

Just got back from my Southwest roadtrip vacation. Had a great time!

@pairinstability.bsky.social oh shit iron and wine? You're really going through it.

It's my birthday let's see those balls.

Not to be not like other girls, but I do think that if I were a furry, I'd be an opossum with a drinking and smoking problem. (I do not drink or smoke)

uh oh I seem to have stumbled upon the "video essayist that tried to capitalized on the video essay boom 6 years ago, but isn't particularly skilled in constructing an essay and doesn't want to do deep research into a topic" side of youtube, I'd like to get off please.

I'm a big fan of r/hairyhunks, love everything that they do. please keep it up.. however. Some of yall are just not bringing the hairy. You're all hunky for sure, but I need that skin to be barely visible. There are unlimited subreddits for hunky men, I need this one to be a hairy man worship pit.

Not the exact problem scenario proposed in my job interview coming up while doing the actual job. I don't know if to be happy that they were realistic in the interview or sad because I didn't know the answer then and I don't know the answer now.

It must be rough out there in the straight dating world for men to have to make posts on Nextdoor asking if any ladies want to go out for coffee. I'm being genuine, no shade to that man.

Some shady snarks may say that's what "romantasy" is, but I think it goes beyond that, and by definition is difficult to quantify which is why this is all moot. I just personally don't love those kinds of books and wish there was a better way to avoid them.

I honestly think we should expand […]

I don't really want to open this Discourse can of worms, but I've been reading a lot about the new Rebecca Yarros book, and I feel like many readers who didn't enjoy it are saying the same thing.

There needs to be a genre flag for books that are thematically and structurally YA in nature, but […]

As someone who loves doing my taxes ASAP, after getting married it's been a pain in the ass waiting for my husband's documents which tend to come crazy late. But now that we are going through... whatever we are going through, it's even more frustrating because I wouldn't be shocked if tax […]

@dthordetour.bsky.social I love Valheim so much, I wish my friends liked it as much as me. It's tough to play solo.

Nothing like starting a fresh Valheim play-through as a form of hyper-fixation, dissociation, and mental escape from, well, … … …

✨🇺🇸 this🇺🇸✨ .

@tylermead.bsky.social I have nothing against them as long as they're doing it in the privacy of their own home and not shoving it down my throat.

I'm begging crime thriller authors to stop writing about women going on writing retreats.

Was in a work meeting and a team member (who is not a native English speaker) casually dropped the R slur, clearly not knowing how extremely offensive it is.

Curious about what the message from our manager is going to look like to her, balancing "I know English isn't your native language" with […]

@alcline123.bsky.social Do you already have a Twitch?

@alcline123.bsky.social ever expanding the greater Columbus polycule I see

@macdmike.bsky.social our relationship will never survive these New Jersey pronunciation delusions.

There has been a decline in vibes based, local coffee shops and I have a lot of thoughts on that. And I typed them all out, but deleted it because the thesis is everyone is the problem except for me.

Everything about corporate culture is so egregiously made up. Please tell me what the fuck data privacy week is. Why do we need a week.

Stylized artistic portrait of an older black man. Bald with white hair and a medium length white beard. The background is bisected horizontally in two colors, the upper section white and the lower section red.

I beat Disco Elysium yesterday.. I'm sure there's something poetic about finishing the game on the day of Trump's second inauguration, but I'm still reeling from the game to give that any thought. Here's my favorite portrait from the game.

I know it's not healthy to hyper fixate on things like aging but I find it depressing that I'm almost going to be 40 by the time he's out of office. My thirties have only seen incompetence and disappointment in the white house.

I have not been keeping up to date on the fediverse/decentralized platforms in general. Is it the case that Mastodon will never federate with bluesky/threads? Like many others I imagine, I much prefer Mastodon to those, but the fact of the matter is that they have the users. I'm abandoning […]
